The Greens and general climate change fanatics are dedicated to seeing an all-electric society, the electric coming entirely from renewables. The implausibility of this happening in a non-nuclear future, has been shown in many blog posts here. However, California, which prides itself in the pursuit of all things woke, and seeks to be at the forefront of the great environmental experiment, will be a test case, as the state has now mandated that all new homes built, beginning in 2030, must be all-electric. Goodbye natural gas ovens and heating. Other US states who are in the woke parade will follow suit.

The problem here is that this will inevitably fail. For a start, there is simply not enough electricity to do this, with electric resources already under stress in California, and this is before the demand increases exponentially. The facts and figures for those interested are detailed below. Worse of all, natural disasters, such as flood and fire, that occur regularly in California, let alone predicted earthquakes, could substantially damage the electric infrastructure, and without fossil fuel backups, which will presumably become illegal, people could face either freezing conditions in winter, or blistering heat in summer, with no energy relief. The aged and sick will suffer. Again, it is all another crazy Leftist environmentalist idea, leading us down the road to poverty and misery.

Victor Davis Hanson continues his deconstruction of the modern Left, with his commentary on the real motivations of the Left. As we have covered in articles yesterday, the psychological evidence indicates that the Left are not motivated by  high morality, as they portray, but use woke causes in the will to power. Lower ground-feeders, such as academics, work in the system, and promote woke causes such as the trans agenda, as this is the big thing of the time. Thus, the politically correct standard now is to oppose second generation feminists, who were sure that the future was “female.” No, “female” is a socially constructed category, as seen in the sports debate. Just as races do not exist for specific purposes, but do for others, likewise now with gender, as an example, women can have penises. There is no consistent world view here but there does not have to be since, as Hanson argues in more detail, truth has been abandoned, in favour of whatever serves the Left’s interests.

There are a number of articles from conservatives concluding that the so-called battle of the sexes has been won by women. Of course, feminists have proclaimed this for some time, an example being The End of Men and the Rise of Women by Hanna Rosin. For the feminist, this is but one step on the road to their utopia, which will only be complete when, I presume, men have been totally wiped out, socially at least.  After all, the rhetoric today is that we are still in a patriarchy, and that women are still oppressed. This line has been pushed with all seriousness even by female prime ministers and big capitalism leaders, so, it is propaganda, as these people having top positions, refute what they say, by their position.

There are some signs of resistance. A group of EU members of Parliament are pushing for a national debate on all aspects of the Covid plandemic, including mRNA vax injuries. The group has been influenced by the 3rd International COVID Summit 2023, that concluded as many of us has, that the Covid plandemic was a product of a globalist cabal moving to establish technocratic transhuman control over human nature. Let us see where this goes, as the more opposition groups the better; more moving targets.

My favourite ex-academic, Eugyppius, although anonymous of course, gives his take on the self-gluing climate change maniacs. As a European, he focusses upon the crazies in Europe, especially Germany, such as Letzte Generation. He points out that while these young people are incoherent in philosophy, they are serving a purpose for the globalist agenda. As Eugyppius notes, they are funded by various globalists, as occurs in the UK. It is significant that these climate protests are tolerated by the authorities, with the police being very polite to them. In one protest, the UK police went out of their way to comfort the protesters who had glued themselves to the road, offering them water. But, only a little while ago, police were beating and pepper spraying Covid lockdown protesters. So, there is something immediately suspicious about it all. The climate activists are just the foot soldiers of the globalist organizations that use climate change as a means for global control, through fear and coercion, and force if necessary.

I am finding one of these styles of reports almost every week now, as artificial intelligence gurus warn of the “existential” risks of AI, including the “risk of extinction.” This has been said so often now that I am, for one, numb to it. Now we have a group of leading experts,  including OpenAI boss Sam Altman, whose firm created ChatGPT, and the “Godfather of AI” Geoffrey Hinton, who have put together a letter giving another warning: “Mitigating the risk of extinction from AI should be a global priority alongside other societal-scale risks such as pandemics and nuclear war,” Elon Musk also said recently that there was a non-zero risk of a situation depicted in the Terminator movies happening, with controlling AI attempting to exterminate humanity.

Yet, while this all sounds noble, sounding their warning, most are working on some of the very tech that the doomsday scenarios depend upon. In my opinion, these guys are ultimately either insincere/ playacting, or deluded, but that goes with science in modernity. The endgame is still the same.

Anyone who has much to do with Leftists, must have noticed that they seem to all be mentally unsound. That common observation is in fact backed by psychological research, as difficult as it must be to get it published given the stranglehold the Left now has on academia and its journals. But, a recent paper in the peer-reviewed journal Current Psychology (abstract below) has uncovered that Leftism is linked to psychopathic tendencies and narcissism. That is extremely plausible, since authoritarian personalities, typically found in the Left, are narcissistic, which is needed to put their agendas into action. According to authors Ann Krispenz and Alex Bertrams, this Leftist narcissism, which they call the “dark-ego-vehicle principle,” is the real motivating force of Leftism: “According to this principle, individuals with dark personalities — such as high narcissistic and psychopathic traits — are attracted to certain forms of political and social activism which they can use as a vehicle to satisfy their own ego-focused needs instead of actually aiming at social justice and equality.” All the ranting about social justice and the like is just that, ranting. It is not serious, but is simply something of convenience to “provide them with opportunities for positive self-presentation and displays of moral superiority, to gain social status, to dominate others, and to engage in social conflicts and aggression to satisfy their need for thrill seeking.”

In short, Leftism is all about the will to power, today in the West, done by psychological manipulation, while in the past, it was done as old Mao said, down the barrel of a gun.

A good point has been made by Dissent Right social critic, Robert Spencer, that the description of the Left as “progressives,” is a mistaken use of terminology, and we should stop referring to them in that way. The term is value-laden, just like the term “gay,” which decades ago used to depict a general state of happiness, with nothing specific about sexuality. The term “progressive” is also value-laden, and has a positive implication, that by embracing Leftist ideology, one is making “progress,” and in this age, progress is good, right? But, it is this faith in the myth of inevitable progress, that lies behind much of the writings of Karl Marx, that there is a historical inevitability about capitalism failing, and the communist society arising, and this will be intrinsically good. But, history has shown that this has failed. The West, via cultural Marxism, is experimenting with this failed ideology once more, and disaster is happening, which will only intensify as the place falls apart, day by day, unless the Left are stopped.

Here is a reproduction of an email from Senator Alex Antic regarding opposing the WHO International Health Regulations, and pandemic treaty. Many of the journalists at the blog have shown that this is yet another globalist power grab, and a very serious one, that could lead to WHO directing governments in the next plandemic, academic. This is, given the CCP dominance of WHO, equivalent to being ruled by communist China, something a lot of people in Australia seem to want, since freedom is a burden; but most of us, would say No!! Compulsory vaccination could be on the agenda. There is a petition to sign, linked in the email.

“Earlier this year, I spoke about my concerns regarding the World Health Organisation proposed “Pandemic Treaty” and amendments to the International Health Regulations which are currently being negotiated. …

Peter Dutton has been making the excellent point that the onus is upon the Albo government to demonstrate how the Voice will actually improve the lives of Indigenous Australians, something that so far has not been done, and probably won’t be, I believe, since the whole thing is one more power grab, and a dangerous one at that. More importantly, since Indigenous Australians are only a small part of this country, the full details of what the Voice will involve are not being disclosed, and we all need to know this to make an intelligent vote at all.

 Albo says the role of the Voice will be purely advisory, but one does not need to change the constitution to do that, a simple Act of parliament is enough. So, the whole agenda is full of deception. The race discrimination commissioner, wants the debate to steer clear of the race question, as it may stir up “racism,” but the very Voice issue is grounded in race; a particular race of people will be given special rights that others do not have. Whether that is a good thing or bad thing, people will vote to decide, but it can hardly be reasonably denied that race is the core issue here.

Dr Robert Malone has said that there is a herd of elephants in the room, and that what we think are autonomous nation states, in fact are not, and are already have been dissolved and put under the ultimate control of the globalist elite. Sure, day-to-day domestic issues are handled by the so-called elected government, but the real issues are decided by the Dark Lords of the New World Order. He illustrates this with the Covid plandemic, which brought it right out into the open. Across the West, with perhaps the only exception being to a limited degree, Sweden, governments engaged in psyops to force their slaves to take an experimental mRNA gene therapy, using lockdowns to soften them up, and dangling freedom in front of their noses, from the home detentions, with a dripping syringe in the other steel-gloved hand. As well the population was subjected to wearing mostly useless masks, a symbol of bondage, that have led to not only pollution in the environment, but microplastics in the lungs, of children too. "They lie to us, we know they're lying, they know we know they're lying, but they keep lying to us, and we keep pretending to believe them”: Alexander Solzhenitsyn. He could well be describing the election results of Victoria and Western Australia, which returned with stunning majorities the very governments that took away freedoms so badly that even American media was shocked. Vax us harder Big Brother!

Dr. Malone seems to think that the local elites are incapable of admitting that they got Covid wrong, but I think the story is a little different; they know full well that the vaxxes are potentially dangerous, but the governments had their orders from above, and obeyed. How else to explain the Australian Senate voting to not investigate the excess mortality issue? Something like this is the duty of a government, to get to the bottom of, and if it fails to do so, then something is rotten in the state of Denmark, or rather Australia: Hamlet, Act I, Scene 4.

Although the constitution prescribes pensions, the founding Fathers did not set out an age for getting it. Thus, to cut costs the trick now is to simply raise the age of getting the pension, which will be 67 years in July. However, studies allegedly show that to be “sustainable” the pension age will need to be raised to 70 years, but there is no fix decision yet when this will be done; sure, this is just testing the water. I suspect soon after the rise to 67 years, maybe a year, it will be up as a live issue. The libs will salivate at the idea.  Then, my guess is that given the Australian life expectancy is 83.94 years, they will want to reach that figure and beyond as soon as possible so that there are no pensions. No matter that money is wasted on mass migration, multicult madness and New World Order agenda; that is business as usual in what this place has become.

Thus, it will be, work until you die, only, there will be no jobs. Australia is truly now the unlucky country, as liberties have been allowed to be washed away. How about Aussies get some animal spirits and protest this pension scam as the French have, and are doing?

While British conservative politicians are expressing concern about the World Health Organization pandemic treaty, the critical focus in the US Congress is upon the WHO Preparedness and Resilience for Emerging Threats (PRET), and Congress is now investigating the significance of this. WHO advocates the use of “social listening surveillance systems” to identify “misinformation.”  It almost certainly has in mind controlling information relating to pandemics, as was seen during Covid, particularly criticisms of the vaccines.

It is well known that WHO has a cosy relationship with big Pharma; indeed, modern medicine is in many ways, just a branch of Big Pharma, not of overall health and fitness. The PRET document describes misinformation as a “health threat,” and refers to it as an “infodemic.” “Infodemic is the overabundance of information – accurate or not – which makes it difficult for individuals to adopt behaviors that will protect their health and the health of their families and communities. The infodemic can directly impact health, hamper the implementation of public health countermeasures and undermine trust and social cohesiveness.”

For Aussies concerned about the lack of opposition to the coming world health organization pandemic treaty, there is some good news from the UK jurisdiction. There are now reports that a number of conservative politicians are concerned about the threat that the treaty will have upon British sovereignty. The group is rightfully fearful  that the WHO is moving from an advisory position, to a controlling one, which is quite correct.  Former Cabinet Minister Esther McVey said: “The plans represent a significant shift for the organization, from a member-led advisory body to a health authority with powers of compulsion,” she continued. “This is particularly worrying when you consider the WHO’s poor track record on providing consistent, clear and scientifically sound advice for managing international disease outbreaks.” 

It remains to see if some sort of backlash could develop, along with parallel opposition in the US. It could save the day for Australia.

From what I could see, there was no coverage of this US item in the Australian press, namely that Joe Biden’s approval rating is going down the drain, and that is from official polls. CNN reported tht 66 percent of those survey see a Biden victory in the 2024 elections as a “disaster,” which it will be. At present 20 percent of Democrats support the anti-vax freedom fighter Robert Kennedy, who will hopefully prune Democrat numbers down even more. Even coming from the left, and supporting a free enterprise approach to climate change, the world would certainly be better with Kennedy than Biden, and even Trump. That is how bad it is.

Peter Dutton, Leader of the Opposition, has dared to raise the issue of what happens if and when the Voice fails. He has said that a failure will save the country from a democratic disaster, as we will not know the details of the Voice until it is passed. That is like buying a used car, as I see it, without even seeing it. Who would do that? But, he feels that the Voice may set back the mythical “reconciliation,” a vague Left-wing concept which never gets detailed. Reconcile, what exactly? Wrongs of the past? But, we did not do that … go build a time machine and sort it out.  I, for one, am dog-tired of this entire baggage.

https://www.theaustralian.com.au/nation/politics/peter-dutton-says-reconciliation-may-be-set-back-if-referendum-fails/news-story/0329c5e311f3cd787e9e3fa7e745fb2d

The Biden administration has conducted a war against Christian citizens, and this is a blueprint for other Leftist regimes in the West to follow. What was done was that the regime used an anti-terrorism grant initiative to a university program, that explicitly targeted the American Right, and lumped Christians in with extremist groups. This enables the private research groups to gather data and information on groups such as anti-abortion groups, without the usual checks and balances of government organisations, being proxy investigation groups. On this basis information can be gathered, which may be of interest to organisations such as the FBI and Department of Homeland Security. "This terrorism task force is engaged in an active effort to demonize and eliminate Christian, conservative, and Republican organizations using federal taxpayer dollars," said Brent Bozell, founder and president of the Media Research Center. "What we have uncovered calls for criminal prosecution. The American people need to know those who are abusing their positions in the federal government will be held accountable for their criminal behavior."”

With the Voice referendum fast approaching, and the enormous issues that it raises for Australia’s future, and indeed survival as a nation, not being discussed, but, pushed under the red carpet, we would do well to look at what is happening in other jurisdictions to get a feel of what the elites have in store. Reparations for Blacks is the the big white liberal guilt issue in America, with California showing what is on the Leftist mind. California leads the charge over the cliff, even though it was a free state with no slaves. That has not stopped the demand for millions for every Black, whether they have had slave ancestors or not. It is a mania which has gripped the Left, as seen in the hyper-woke white governor Gavin Newsom, who has based his career upon the pursuit of woke. And, there is no reason to not believe, that if the Voice referendum succeeds, next will be a treaty, then the irresistible push for reparations, and a white guilt tax. Be sure that the brunt of anything will be upon the working class, not the super-capitalists, who should be the one’s to pay, if payment must be done.

The Wall Street Journal, behind the usual paywall, has reported on Sweden becoming the gun and murder capital of Europe, at least Western Europe. The article describes what is happening in great detail, gun fights, grenade attacks, and rival gangs fighting it out. But, every sentence has an identification of who is doing this; not native Nordic Swedes, but the migrants, as Trump some time back said. That seems to be now accepted, but the Left are taking the line that a racist Swedish society, that failed to integrate them, is responsible. Yes, that society motivates men to fight turf wars with rival drug gangs, and to toss hand grenades. Such is the nature of “racism.”  

One of the most annoying things about the Greens in Australia is the war that they have declared on plastic, such as banning plastic spoons, knives and folks. Instead, we have wood, which no doubt comes from some place where woke forests are cut down. That is their achievement, while mass immigration would surely be a greater ecological threat, but the environmental movement, riddled with Leftists never touched that one.
